As far as I can tell from google, Igor Peshanksy seems to still be out
there, which is good, but he seems to have given up on volunteering time
to Cygwin.  He has not responded to personal email asking for
clarification.

I am* very appreciative of all of his contributions but it leaves us a
little in the lurch with regard to his packages and his maintainership
of the gold star and acronym pages.

This is a list of Igor's packages:

  cocom                           Igor Peshansky
  jgraph                          Igor Peshansky
  ocaml                           Igor Peshansky
  pdksh                           Igor Peshansky
  pine                            Igor Peshansky
  wtf                             Igor Peshansky

Is anyone interested in picking up any of those?  And, is anyone
interested in being given access to the cygwin web site so that the gold
star and acronym pages can shine again?

Finally, lets take a moment of silence to contemplate Igor's
contributions to the project.  His efforts and insight will be missed.
